    THE ROUNDUPS -- The Bay Area's newest hit-makers; whether 'bopping' the BLUES or putting the HILLBILLY in BOOGIE these rising COUNTRY & WESTERN stars are consummate entertainers. LORAINE BELMONTE -- Formerly of the SWEET' N' LO's, Ms. Belmonte leads the outfit with her sublimely sensational vocal stylings and adds a unique twist to traditional AMERICANA music with the addition of her trademark UKULELE. Backing up Ms. Belmonte is a talented quartet of fellows who are no strangers to the bright lights uptown: MR. RIED ROGERS--Affectionately referred to as "The Maestro" by the boys, Mr. Rogers lends a MEMPHIS hue to the group's NASHVILLE influences. Formerly of TEXAS STEVE'S GIT GONE TRIO, he tears up the tones with his patented MERLE TRAVIS-meets-THE BAKERSFIELD SOUND style LEAD GUITAR. MR. Doyle Curtis-- Keeps audiences guessing with his diverse ACOUSTIC GUITAR mastery. Sometimes OLD TIMEY,sometimes JAZZY, Mr. Fish is always a character. Whether channeling the KING or communing with THE MAN IN BLACK he is a wild card that never fails to deliver! MR. DAVE SCHWARTZ -- A relative newcomer, Mr. Schwartz handles the BULL FIDDLE or the ELECTRIC BASS GUITAR with equal vigor. No stranger to hardwood floors this young man is a mild mannered student by day and HONKY TONK HERO by night. Don't let the spectacles fool you; this young man cut his teeth in the rough dives of the Bay Area ROCK'N'ROLL circuit! DELMAR STOKES--To call Mr. Stokes "just a drummer" would be like calling the Mona Lisa "just a painting". Whether STIRRING THE POT or SHUFFLING a beat he keeps time like hopped up V8, which is to say he runs a little HOT! His varied musical background –- playing ROCKABILLY and SURF with MISS FIRE & THE DETONATIONS –- allows Mr. Stokes to lend a hand in arrangements that create NEW vibes on time honored CLASSIC numbers!
